Pastures for Florida FIG. 7.-ERADICATING OBJECTIONABLE GROWTH. Two or more double diskings with heavy disk harrows and 3 to 5 chop- pings with rotary choppers generally are required. Heavy disks equipped with depth spools prevent deep disking, which brings the coarse sandy soil to the surface, thus making an inferior seedbed. Medium weight cutaway disk harrows also can be used satisfactorily for destroying less vigorous vegetation.
